These socks have a fun and easy diagonal stitch pattern that adds texture and interest. The combination of the colors and the series of bumps created by the stitch pattern reminded me of lilypads, so that’s what I decided to call the socks. The twisted stitches in the stitch pattern offer the perfect opportunity to try cabling without a cable needle.
